My lizard brain needs some help, simple stuff I think related to my small space in my office. Thing is I intend to use this in a chair sitting down. So if one of the experts has a few minutes, I'll start with ED vr first.

Final stages of my setup with Elite Dangerous in VR with my Oculus Rift. A bit of a review of the various utilities maybe in order for tweaking.

We have the SteamVR console which I have set to 3.2 for Steam SS

Dr. Kai's tool has some VR preconfigs ready to go (have not used yet).

We have Oculus Tray Tools (not using yet)

Oculus SDK (not using yet)

My settings for IL-2 Battle of Stalingrad are as per Fenris Wolf and look great:

Your i7 7700K should run with at least 4.6GHz during IL-2 VR gameplay. Make sure to disable any AVX offset in your BIOS, very important. CPU Load-Line-Calibration must be set to 1 or 2 (fixated!) if you use water-cooling to avoid VRM temp spikes.

Make sure your DDR4 RAM runs at its proper XMP, a speed of at least ~3000 MHz is recommended to not throttle the system.

After this, go into your "Device Manager", select "USB-Controller", and check out properties of all Generic USB hubs. Some will have a tab on "energy setting". Make sure they all have no check at "allow to suspend device to save energy".

This will treat the camera jittery. If tracking problems persist, consider buying a powered Inateck USB Controller/Card - google for models that fit to the Rift.

Find the Oculus Home executable, go to properties, its compatibility tab, enable "always start as administrator". This means you can start IL-2 through Steam without Oculus Home being loaded automatically as well.

Oculus Tray Tool, in case you use it: Don't, and keep its SS off. Don't use its features like "cpu priority", they reduce fps in IL-2.

Ingame, you load into the cockpit, and before or after starting the engine (not during the procedure) you hold CTRL+1(numpad) for a second, or press it multiple times, this disables ASW.

Check your fps by pressing backspace during flight. This costs you 1 or 2 fps while the counter is shown. Always fly without HUD, it is a crazy performance eater (speaking 15-25fps). You can set "Objectives/Map" each to a button on your joystick, to turn it on and off during flight.

Avoid any shaders like reshade or 3dmigoto vr shader, they cost a lot of fps and make the translational movements of your head jittery.
